We present a deperturbation analysis of the spin-orbit-coupled A 1 Σ+ and b 3 Π 0+ states of
LiRb based on the rovibrational energy levels observed previously by photoassociation …

Photoassociation (PA) of 85 Rb atoms from the ground $\mathrm {X}^{1}\Sigma^{+}
_\mathrm {g} $ state to the excited $\mathrm {A}^{1}\Sigma^{+} _\mathrm {g} $ and $\mathrm …

Recent experimental developments have allowed physicists to freeze molecules' motion
down to an ultracold temperature regime where quantum effects become profound …

We investigated helium-mediated translational and rotational thermalization of the aluminum
monofluoride (AlF) molecule at cryogenic temperatures via an ab initio potential energy …

Ultracold polar molecules offer a multitude of fascinating possibilities for physical research.
Proposals for their use reach from quantum chemistry, where they enable detailed studies of …

Photoassociation (PA) is a powerful technique to synthesize molecules directly and
continuously from cold and ultracold atoms into deeply bound molecular states. In …

We have investigated rovibronic levels of the strongly mixed b Π 1 3–c Σ 1+ 3–B Π 1 1 states
[the 2 (1), 3 (1), and 4 (1) states in Hund's case (c) notation] of Rb 85 Cs 133 in the energy …

The spin-orbit (SO) coupling matrix elements between the excited states of the lightest
heteronuclear alkali metal dimers AB (A, B= Li, Na, K, Rb) converging to the first three …

The ab initio electronic transition dipole moments (ETDMs) of heteronuclear dimers XY (X,
Y= Li, Na, K, Rb) were calculated between the ground and excited states converging to the …

We study the van der Waals interaction between Rydberg alkali-metal atoms with fine
structure (n 2 L j; L≤ 2) and heteronuclear alkali-metal dimers in the ground rovibrational …
